The next Glastonbury Festival will be taking place from the 26th to the 30th of June 2019, festival organisers have confirmed.

The Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts will be held at the Worthy Farm, Pilton in Somerset.

The team confirmed in 2016 that they would be taking a fallow year next year, meaning the festival would not be happening in 2018, "in order to give the farm, the village and the Festival team the traditional year off".

A police officer at Glastonbury Festival has returned a person's abandoned ticket so they can keep it as a "souvenir".

They posted the ticket to Anna Colbourn after finding it discarded near the Pyramid Stage. They wrote she hoped she had "an awesome festival."

Miss Colbourn,

We found this at the back of the Pyramid Field at Glasto last weekend. Bit useless now but thought you'd like it back as a souvenir. Hope you had an awesome festival - we did face paint, fairy wings etc.
